My Rush 12 ruck came in yesterday. I am going to have to break this pack in for sure! Am I the only person who find packs to be like boots... takes some time to break em in?
Got it weighed down to 18# using bricks in shipping boxes to pad them and distribute the weight.
My hunting packs very rarely go over 10# and I am pretty much a minimalist. Carrying weight is more about over reaching and being prepared for the case where yoi might need to carry more.
My plan is to stick with 20-35# for everyday and rucking and do 35-70# for short distance workouts (5 miles)
As I have mentioned before... alot of prep is naking sure you make enough deposits into the pain bank, so when the time comes, you have sufficient funds to withdraw.
Headed to the gym now to work on some upper body.

So check this out guys. I picked up some cut rock for my flower beds today and they work absolutely perfect for putting in your pack. The distribute the weight well and tighten up really good. I didn't weigh these but I put 2 16" long pieces in my pack. I'm guessing 36# or so.
Edit. I just weighed it and it's 57#. Gotta love how that kifaru packs weight

My plan for higher weight will be bags of corn, flour that is taped up. I figure deboned meat in pillow cases are going to be more fluid than bricks.
